The initiative, Combating Endemic Diseases of Farmed Animals for Sustainability, is backing research into a range of diseases, including bovine TB and mastitis, footrot in sheep and the viral pig disease post-weaning multi-systemic wasting syndrome.

In addition, if the malnutrition is not addressed, it can lead to a condition called cachexia, defined as a wasting syndrome that results in compromised immunity, weakness, and a loss of weight, fat, and muscle.
